Leatherwood Resort and Marina Location
Situated by picturesque Leatherwood Creek and resting on the beautiful eastern shores of Kentucky Lake, Leatherwood Resort & Marina offers all the amenities for a fisherman’s getaway or a family vacation. Resting on a bay shielded by a peninsula from the main lake, the calm deep waters adjacent to the resort make for excellent fishing and water sports. Boasting one of the deepest bays on the Lake, year round boat navigation is never a problem.

Quaint cottages and log cabins are available for lodging with all of the amenities a vacationer would need. Cottages have two bedrooms with an additional sleeper sofa in the living area. Satellite television is provided. Each unit has a full kitchen completely equipped with cooking and eating utensils.
